The city of Bradford in West Yorkshire isn't known for an arid or hot climate. But hailing from the former industrial heartlands of rainy Northern England, hasn't stopped PSYCHLONA from crafting an earnest and particularly British take on desert rock. Hold the tequila, they'll have pints of beer, my dear.
What began decades past in California got an update in the hot summer of 2016, when a group of local Brit musicians began simmering molten riffs with the raw energy of UK punk and spoonfuls of classic English 60s and 70s psychedelia. The unique beast that is PSYCHLONA was born.
In November 2018, when all the Northern towns turn grey, their sun-drenched debut album "Mojo Rising" garnered early recognition for the band and set them on track for a prolific next several years.
The hardworking Englishmen wasted no time, following with the release of sophomore full-length "Venus Skytrip" in August 2020. The album was greeted with rave reviews across the heavy rock underground, landed PSYCHLONA their first number one on the Doom Charts, and secured them high placements on numerous end-of-year lists.
The British stoner rockers didn't slow down, unleashing their third album "Palo Verde" two years later in August 2022 and immediately scored their second 10/10 review in Powerplay Magazine UK.
PSYCHLONA used the time between albums to establish themselves as a crushing live act. Aside from relentless touring, the band performed at prestigious festivals including Desertfest (UK & DE), Freak Valley (DE), SonicBlast (PT), Alcatraz Music (BE), Sonic Whip (NL) and twice across the Atlantic at Psycho Las Vegas (US).
Currently, PSYCHLONA are preparing for the release of their fourth album, which will be out via Magnetic Eye Records in 2024. Meanwhile, enjoy a taste of what they've been at with the brand new video single 'Liberty'!
